Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This presentation includes information that does not conform to U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), including Adjusted EBITDA; Adjusted Corporate expenses; and
revenue, direct operating expenses, SG&A expenses and Adjusted EBITDA excluding movements in foreign exchange rates ("FX"). Since these non-GAAP financial measures are not
calculated in accordance with GAAP, they should not be considered in isolation of, or as a substitute for, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures as an indicator of operating
performance or, in the case of Adjusted EBITDA, the Company's ability to fund its cash needs. In addition, these measures may not be comparable to similar measures provided by other
companies. This data should be read in conjunction with previously published Company reports on Forms 10-K, 10-Q and 8-K. These reports are available on the Investor Relations page of
investor.clearchannel.com. Reconciliations of consolidated net loss to Adjusted EBITDA and corporate expenses to Adjusted Corporate expenses are included at the end of this presentation.
This presentation should be read in conjunction with the 2020 earnings releases and Form 10-Q filings of Clear Channel Outdoor Holdings, Inc., available at
investor.clearchannel.com.
Numbers may not sum due to rounding. Certain financial information shown in this presentation excludes the effects of foreign exchange rates, which are calculated by converting the current
period's amounts in local currency to U.S. dollars using average foreign exchange rates for the comparable prior period. In this presentation, Adjusted EBITDA is defined as consolidated net
loss, plus: income tax expense (benefit); all non-operating expenses (income), including other expense (income), net, loss on extinguishment of debt, and interest expense, net; other operating
expense (income), net; impairment charges; depreciation and amortization; non-cash compensation expenses included within corporate expenses; and restructuring and other costs included
within operating expenses. Restructuring and other costs include costs associated with cost savings initiatives such as severance, consulting and termination costs, and other special costs. In
this presentation, Adjusted Corporate is defined as corporate expenses excluding restructuring and other costs and non-cash compensation expense. See reconciliations of consolidated net
loss to Adjusted EBITDA and corporate expenses to Adjusted Corporate expenses in the Appendix.

Initiatives to Strengthen Liquidity
In light of the rapidly evolving impact of COVID-19, we have implemented a number of actions to improve our liquidity
position and provide additional financial flexibility to manage through the economic downturn.
These initiatives include but are not limited to:
• On March 24, 2020 made a cautionary draw of $150 million under our Revolving Credit Facility
• On March 30, 2020 announced agreement to sell stake in Clear Media, and on April 28, 2020 tendered our shares
to Ever Harmonic Global Limited; expect to receive proceeds later this month
• Net proceeds expected to be approximately $220 million
• Identifying opportunities to significantly reduce annual capital expenditures:
• Discretionary growth capex largely deferred
• Renegotiating certain contracts for committed capex
• Evaluating sustaining capex for potential deferral
• Believe we can reduce our planned capex for the balance of the year by more than half
• Continuing discussions with landlords to align fixed site lease expenses with revenue during the economic
downturn
• Beginning to achieve success in both Europe and the U.S.
• Reducing employee compensation expense
• Temporary salary reductions for majority of employees
• Furloughs based on market conditions, hiring freezes and variable compensation reductions
• Aggressively cutting discretionary spending
• Goal is to achieve operating cost savings in excess of $100 million and capital expenditure savings in excess of
$25 million during the second quarter of 2020
